I have an SD DVR upstairs and a HD DVR in family room. I want to replace the upstairs DVR with a HD DVR. Can I just plug and play? Dave

But, isn't the advantage of going the Costco route that you actually own the receiver as opposed to the leasing with Direct? Dave

Thanks for your help and information. D

No. So I assume there isn't a SWM on this line? Dave

Not sure about the SWM status. How do I know? Dave

In my family room I have a HR 21 and in my bedroom there is a R 22. The R22 has a single coax line to it. I want to upgrade to HD. Is it a simple swap out of machines or is there more involved? Do I need to have the technician come do this? Also, will the upgrade cost $199? Does that make...

Hi, I called another CSR, and got all 4 networks without a hitch. She looked up my address and saw that the area had been preapproved. She turned them on as we talked. So far I have been a D customer for 24 hours, have called csr two times and been very impressed with their ability to help.

I live in southeastern Ohio and get SD locals from Charleston,WV. They do not broadcast in HD. I called D about getting national HD DNS service but was told that since I can get locals, I cannot get HD DNS. Is that correct? When I go to the web site and type in my address and zip (45701), it...

I live in Athens, OH. My locals come from Charleston WV. The supervisor said that he could get me the locals and HD without the 129 but it would require two dishes. My roof already looks like a COMSAT relay station!:D

My problem started on a pleasant but humid August afternoon. The Dish installer was prompt at 1:00 to install my new 622 and take away my 811 and 522. The first warning of a problem was when he said that he couldn't site the 129 satellite due to trees. My reception of my locals off of 105 has...

I went on the system and it looks like I am pointed at 119 for the 522 and 105 and 110 for the 811. Sounds like I will need someone to aim the dish at the correct satellites, no? I am in the rolling hills of southeastern Ohio. Dave

Hi, I have three receivers..an 811 for HD, a 522 for dvr to our main large screen tv and a bedroom tv, and a 301 for a basement tv. If i ordered the 622, I could do away with both the 811 and 522, correct? How easy is it to hook up the 622 to our current system? Should I have an installer do...
